I'm getting sick of this!!!!
I'm getting sick of this!!!!
This morning when I came out of my driveway, and backed up into the street, a car came and hit the passenger side of my car. Nothing SERIOUS. Just scratches.
Total estimate to replace the front bumper- Roughly $800.00
Replace clear fog light - $300.00
The plastic piece holding the bottom screw broke, so I might just do a quick fix with some hot glue, or maybe some super glue.
I might just use the touch up paint since it's not THAT bad. The scratches are gone down into the black part of the bumper, so that's a bad thing.
Could someone please help me find a DIY that is RELIABLE, and very, very good. I don't want the colors to miss match, and I definitely want the shine back as well.

You were backing out of your driveway into the street and a car hit the front of your car? Did they try to go around you after you had stopped?
I wonder who would be listed at fault since technically traffic would have the right of way, but if he went around you after you had come to a stop, hmmmmn.
I wonder where does the point of liability cross? If I'm backing out of my driveway, I should be liable for someone running into the back of me. But how far do I have to get out of the driveway before I have the right of way? Anyone care to pontificate the perusal of my ponderance?

Well, as I exit my parking lot, and I head to my right, some ***** comes swerving off of the highway and tries to miss my car by going too fast.
My car is only under liability for $300.00, and the insurance company doesn't cover cosmetic damages.
Papi, donde es de tu amigo body shop?

Makes a little bit more sense (well not really, not without pictures) lol
What does only under liability for $300 mean or is that your deductible? Or do you only have liability insurance? If its the latter, you might want to do a check on how much repairs and parts cost for the GS and invest in getting full coverage. One small accident or fender bender will easily exceed a year's premium for full coverage.

No, I really have no clue, it's almost impossible to give a quote without him taking a look at the car. Here's his number 917 577-4404 (his name is Junior), you can try to call him during business hours (shop closes at 6) and tell him I (Cliff) gave you his number but you live in NJ and if it's possible for you to email him pictures so he can give you a range of what you're looking at at.
